MAIN STREET MEMBERS IN ACTION

Lawmakers serve the public interest

when they show independent-mindedness

Sen. Ben Sasse and Rep. Don Bacon deserve credit for their recent displays of independent-mindedness. They have stood up, in the face of partisan criticism, for responsible behavior in Washington. Their actions are in line with a Nebraska tradition of similar independent judgment by Bob Kerrey and Chuck Hagel when they

served in the Senate.
